Between another hire and another freelancer.


Growing businesses reach a point where the founder and the team are carrying work that no longer belongs with them. Administration, coordination, follow-up, the steady upkeep of a digital presence.

Hiring locally for each of those needs is often expensive, and often early. Bringing in individual freelancers adds another layer to manage, and the knowledge leaves when they do.

The Backroom is built for the space in between: capable remote support inside a managed structure, with a clear scope, documented processes and someone accountable for the result.

Where we are

The Backroom Digital is a young company, and we would rather say so. We are building it carefully, around a small number of well-run engagements rather than a large roster.

If this sounds like the gap in your business, let’s talk.

We will listen first, and only suggest support where it is clearly useful.
